Based on a booktip here I read Autocratcy Inc. Some parts were quite an eye-opener.

Book recommendation 📕‼️: I just finished the book ‘Revenge of the Tipping Point’ by Malcolm Gladwell.

It discusses the variables in changes, leading to the tipping of opinions (gay marriage) and pandemics (Covid and drugs) and more.

Really insightful in understanding systems. And apart from that, the stories are captivating, so easy to read.
